    Description

    Discover tranquility amidst stunning mountain vistas, pastoral scenery, and a classic barn nestled among a few gentle streams. These two parcels boast a combined 43.85 acres of unrestricted open-use zoning. At the crown of Dunsmore Mountain, panoramic 360-degree views encompass the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and extend down the mild slope towards the bottom. The expansive cleared land and wooded upper area offer numerous residential possibilities. Across the road approximately 0.2 miles of stream borders the rear of property, currently utilized for farming but ripe for additional homesites. While a home on the property experienced a fire some years back, two active wells and a septic system remain. Reach out to the Listing Agent to arrange a private tour and immerse yourself in the charm of this idyllic setting, complete with springs, historic logging roads, and picturesque trails. https://mls.kuu.la/share/collection/7cnJT?fs=1&vr=0&zoom=1&autorotate=0.06&thumbs=1
